Text Appearing Before Image:
nocotyledones may be divided into 6 alliances:—Liliiflorse, Scitaminese,Gynandrse, Fluviales, Spadiciflorse, and Glumiflorse. Alliance XXIX.—LiliiflorsB. Families: Juncacece, Liliacece, AmaryUidacecB, Iridacece, Dioscoreacece, Brome-liacecB, Commelynacece, Pontederiacece. In this alliance the flowers are actinomorphic, and their parts arranged in whorlsof three, i.e. two whorls constituting the perianth, two (or one) whorls of stamens,and a whorl of three carpels united together. This condition may be briefly repre-sented by the following formula:—P 8-t-3, A 8-^3, G (3), in which P, A, and G standfor perianth, androecium, and gynaeceum respectively. The bracket inclosing thenumber of carpels indicates that they are united (syncarpous). The ovary is3-celled, and may be either superior or inferior; the seeds contain endosperm. The Liliiflorse are for the most part herbs with perennial underground bulbs,corms, and rhizomes. In relatively few cases is a permanent above-ground system
